First Son Hunter Biden struck out in Delaware District Court on Friday as Judge Maryellen Noreika denied his motions to dismiss the criminal gun charges against him. The disappointing (for Hunter) ruling came just two weeks after a California District Court denied his motions to dismiss tax evasion charges against him. While the California case is set for trial on June 20, 2024, the Delaware case currently is set to begin trial on June 3, 2024, with a pre-trial conference now set for May 24, 2024.
In orders issued Friday afternoon (which may be viewed below), Noreika denied Biden's motions to dismiss on the basis of claimed immunity
Joe Biden wiped out more student loan debt on Friday bringing the total amount he has canceled to $153 billion for 4.3 million borrowers.
Republicans blasted Biden's ongoing effort to forgive student loan debt as a 'scam' to buy votes ahead of the presidential election.
They argue it is unfair to taxpayers who didn't go to college or paid back loans. But the move to slash student debt could also have much broader implications for the economy.
According to Marc Goldwein, senior policy director for the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, no one is immediately going to see their taxes go up due to the president's largesse.

The New York City Council opened its Thursday meeting with an invocation praising Allah, recognized in Islam as the supreme deity.
Imam Abdoulazakou Traore of the Darou Salam Islamic Community Inc. led the council in prayer, beginning with an Arabic recitation followed by an English translation that expressed reverence for Allah as the “Lord of the world” and sought guidance for the city’s lawmakers.
The New York City Community Affairs Bureau estimates the Muslim population in the city to be between 800,000 and 1,000,000, with other sources citing numbers as high as 1.4 million. This demographic makes New York home to the largest Muslim population in the country,
Iran warned earlier this week that it would attack U.S. troops in the Middle East if President Joe Biden helps defend Israel from retaliatory attacks, Axios reported Friday, citing U.S. officials.
Iran is potentially prepping a retaliatory attack against Israel, which killed several Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) members in an airstrike in Syria on April 1. The U.S. is currently helping Israel prepare its defense in light of Iran’s looming attacks, but Tehran is warning the Biden administration that if it interferes, it will launch attacks against U.S. troops in the Middle East, according to U.S. officials who spoke to Axios.

The now-defunct January 6th committee is set to take another gut punch after the emergence of three whistleblowers from the Washington, D.C., National Guard. According to The Daily Mail, which first reported the revelation, the three officers will testify that then-President Donald Trump and then-Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller did approve the deployment of the guard to help secure the Capitol Grounds. A hearing has been set for Wednesday in front of the House Oversight Subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Barry Loudermilk.
A black woman who was captured on video Wednesday praising and hugging former President Donald Trump at a Chick-fil-A in Atlanta, Georgia, criticized President Joe Biden for “disrupting” and oppressing the black community.
During an interview on Fox and Friends with host Lawrence Jones, Conserve the Culture founder Michaelah Montgomery explained that people in the black community find Trump “relatable” and see him as someone who is “talking to them” compared to Biden.
A pro-Palestinian activist was arrested at a Bakersfield, California City Council meeting Wednesday after threatening to murder Mayor Karen Goh (R) and City Council members during a public comments session. Riddhi Patel, 28, was taken into custody at the meeting and was being held on $1 million bond as of Friday afternoon. Last month, pro-Palestinian activists smashed a glass door and injured a police officer after being removed for disrupting a City Council meeting. (Photo) Patel spoke twice during the meeting Wednesday in support of a ceasefire resolution in the Hamas war on Israel. Her first remarks began with mention of her belief Jesus would kill the City Council members
The network evening newscasts continue to feast on coverage of the potential political fallout over an Arizona Supreme Court ruling ratifying an 1864 territorial statute that bans abortion in all instances except to save the life of the mother. Understandably so, as newscast time spent hyping abortions in Arizona is less time available to cover the types of things adverse to Democrats generally, and to the Biden presidency, specifically.
Watch as NBC’s Hallie Jackson gives the game away:
At least 16 people have been injured after a truck driver intentionally plowed into the Texas Department of Safety building the day after they denied his license application.
An unknown motorist drove the stolen 18-wheel vehicle into the official building in Brenham, 75 miles northwest of Houston, at around 11.17am following a police chase.
The Texas DPS said the suspect has been detained and there is 'no further threat' to the community, while police said the truck was stolen. Cops added that the crash was deliberate, though the suspect has not yet been publicly identified.
Three medical helicopters were called
A Donald Trump supporter who scored a hug from the former president when he visited an Atlanta Chick-fil-A explained why young black voters seem to be drawn to him while calling out media outlets that try to “warp” perceptions.
Activist Michaelah Montgomery spoke with “Fox & Friends” co-host Lawrence Jones about her encounter with the presumptive 2024 Republican nominee, and how young voters like herself find him “honest” and “relatable.” She also called out those who falsely portray the black community’s support of Trump.
“I don’t care what the media tells you, Mr. Trump, we support you,”

Robert Kennedy, Jr.: “She asked me, “Don’t I think Trump is very dangerous for the republica?” And I said to her, I can make an argument that President Biden is even more dangerous to the republic. And she had this kind of astonished look — where her brain stopped working.

During a portion of an interview with CNBC that was recorded in February and aired on Thursday’s “Cities of Success,” Denver Mayor Mike Johnston responded to a question on if the city was too open to migrants and too generous by stating that “it’s a balance. We want to be a welcoming city” but doing that without federal help “requires shared sacrifice, it requires compromise. So, we are both making cuts to city budgets to meet this financial need, and we are making cuts to the amount of services we can provide to the migrants that arrive and to the number of folks that we can serve.”

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) on Wednesday explained his apparent flip-flop on a controversial surveillance law, saying that he now favors limited reforms after receiving a classified briefing.
Speaker Johnson was asked by reporters why he changed his opinion on reforming Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), a controversial surveillance law that is meant to target foreign adversaries, but often surveils Americans’ communications without a warrant. Johnson this week came out against a warrant requirement for Section 702 and moved not to allow an amendment that would have barred intelligence and law enforcement agencies from purchasing Americans’ private information through third-party data brokers. This is considered a run around
Rush Limbaugh warned Democrats would eventually promote pedophilia.
Progressivism never stops. Its advocates never say, “This is far enough.” No sooner is one objective completed than left-wing agitators shout that a new social justice battle be waged.
For centuries, God-ordained families headed by one biological man and one biological woman have been civilizations’ bedrocks.
But just as progressives hunger to rewrite Western Civilization’s history (witness scholastic textbook revisionism and the razing of American Founders’ statuary), they crave cultural destruction.
First, they urged same-sex marriages to be legally recognized.
Vice President Kamala Harris posted a video to X on Thursday in which she praised the ATF’s proposed rule which will force background checks on private gun sales.
President Biden boasted about the proposed ATF rule Thursday morning as well. Breitbart News explained that the ATF’s proposed rule changes the definition of what it means to be “engaged in the business of selling guns,” thereby expanding the instances in which an unlicensed seller — i.e., a private citizen — must use the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) to sell or transfer a gun.
Alan Ritchson, the star of Amazon’s hit show, Reacher, claims to be “very disturbed” that police officers can get away with murdering people “all the time” and are never held accountable for it.

At the end of Donald Trump's presidential term, Iran was nearing an economic collapse with little ability to project strength outside of funding terrorist proxies. Internal revolutions were brewing, and the Mullahs were in their weakest position in decades.
Then Joe Biden took over. Since then Iran has been revitalized, seeing significant growth in its military budget due to the waiving of sanctions. The Islamic power has also come far closer to developing usable nuclear weapons. What did the United States get in return? It received a frayed relationship with long-time ally Saudia Arabia and absolute chaos from Kabul to Tel Aviv.
The bombshell essay penned by veteran NPR editor Uri Berliner this week is reportedly causing "turmoil" at his news organization.
Berliner made waves on Tuesday for calling out the liberal groupthink that has plagued NPR's newsroom, pointing to their mishandling of Russiagate, the Hunter Biden laptop, the COVID lab leak theory and the ongoing Israel-Hamas war as examples of its left-wing bias while prioritizing racial diversity over ideological diversity.
On Thursday, The New York Times detailed the "internal tumult" that has erupted among Berliner's colleagues and NPR leadership. According to their report, the essay was brought up at what was described as a "long-scheduled meet-and-greet"
A recent Gallup poll reveals that a mere 4% of Hispanic and Latino Americans use the fake term "Latinx." Interestingly, a significant portion, 15%, prefer to be identified as "Latino" or "Latina," while 23% favor the term "Hispanic." Another separate survey conducted by Bendixen & Amandi International, a Democratic firm, found that only 2% of respondents like the term, and 40% find it offensive.
That has never stopped woke liberals from using the fake term to virtue signal their gender inclusivity. Latinx may get a lot of hype from woke white liberals, but it's not mainstream. So, naturally, a brand new term has dropped: "Latine."
"Latine is the new Latinx,"

The Biden administration announced on Thursday $830 million in new grants to harden old U.S. infrastructure against the effects of ongoing climate change.
Eighty projects will improve roads, rail, ports, transit systems and other surface transportation infrastructure in 37 states with a special focus on those under particular threat from the effects of extreme weather.
The funds will help counter flooding impacts, upgrade stormwater drains, replace emergency bridges, and help cities set new plans to improve coastlines and transit projects.
